3-year-old girl rescued at Kingsport Aquatic Center

The Kingsport Aquatic Center had a water rescue around 1:00 p.m. Monday.

Spokesperson Angela Yingling said a lifeguard saved a 3-year-old girl in the Outdoor Water Park.

The girl went to the hospital as a precaution.

She is breathing on her own and should be okay, according to Yingling.

"Our lifeguards responded as trained and did a great job getting the girl out of the water. We remind all parents that children three and under are to be within arm's reach at all times", Yingling said.
